气体示踪技术研究进展
|
Abstract:
气体示踪剂在油田的应用主要是用于监测和追踪油气开采过程中的一些关键参数和信息。通过向地下注入带有示踪剂的气体,可以在地下水或天然气中标记气体、水或油,并通过监测地面或井下的传感器来对其进行跟踪。这种技术可以帮助油田工程师和地质学家更好地了解地下油气的流动性、地层渗透性、油藏压力及渗透率等参数,从而优化油气开采方案,提高油气勘探和生产效率。此外,气体示踪剂技术还可以用于监测地下水污染情况、井下管道泄漏等环境保护和安全方面的应用。液体示踪剂的研究已经非常深入,但目前对气体示踪剂的认识相对较少。本文对其类型、选用条件、运移机理、解释方法等方面进行了调研,揭示了气体示踪剂的一些基本特性,希望可以为提高油田采收量提供良好的指导。
The application of gas tracers in oil fields is primarily used to monitor and track key parameters and information during the oil and gas extraction process. By injecting gas with tracers into the subsurface, gases, water, or oil can be marked in the underground reservoir, and tracking is done through sensors on the surface or downhole. This technology helps oil field engineers and geologists better understand the mobility of subsurface oil and gas, formation permeability, reservoir pressure, and permeability, thus optimizing oil and gas extraction plans and improving exploration and production efficiency. In addition, gas tracer technology can also be applied to monitor groundwater contamination, leakage in downhole pipelines, and other environmental protection and safety concerns. While research on liquid tracers has been quite advanced, there is still limited understanding of gas tracers. This paper surveys the types, selection criteria, migration mechanisms, and interpretation methods of gas tracers, revealing some of their basic characteristics, with the aim of providing valuable guidance for enhancing oil recovery.
